Implicit Type Constitutive Relations for Elastic Solids and Their Use in the Development of Mathematical Models for Viscoelastic Fluids

Implicit Type Constitutive Relations for Elastic Solids and Their Use in the Development of Mathematical Models for Viscoelastic Fluids

Viscoelastic fluids are non-Newtonian fluids that exhibit both "viscous" and "elastic" characteristics in virtue of mechanisms to store energy and produce entropy. Usually the energy storage properties of such fluids are modelled using the same concepts as in the classical theory of nonlinear solids. Recently new models for elastic solids …
